Best concert BD's?

[Blu-Jedi]

I'm really hoping to get that Queen Rocks Montreal and Live Aid , looks like it would be killer.

Nine Inch Nails. The LFE gets such a workout that I had to actually turn down the sub. The ONLY downside is that it is 1080i but the image is still really good.

Some of the extra videos have also been remixed in True HD whcih sound incredible.

Don't hold me to this, but since this was released on red as well, I believe the blu was made with the the same master. I just popped in the disc to check the audio since the case does not have liner note, the audio is TrueHD and DD. So, in short NOTHING Records pulled a "Warner". and went with the lowest common denominator. In any case, the sound is incredible and is darn near close to reference material.

I have a few and my favorite by far are:

NIN

David Gilmour - Remember That Night

Both are about as good as you'll get in terms of PQ for a concert... the PQ is never as good for concerts as for movies. Both are excellent in terms of the music.

[WaRe]

I have Elton John
Led Zeppelin
Shakira
NIN
Queen
AC/DC

In term of aq/pq i wouls say NIN is the best.

[The Don]

I only own Led Zeppelin but the audio is outstanding..

I will get the David Gilmour concert as well real soon..

I immediately bought queen rocks montreal when it came out on blu. However its not as good imo as Queen live at wembley stadium. The energy from the crowd just doesnt seem that high. After seeing over 100,000 people singing along with freddy at wembley stadium the blu ray montreal concert was a bit of a let down. The live aid part of it was filmed at wembley and is better then the montreal concert, however its not hi def.

I've got Destiny's Child, Hall and Oates, and Mariah so far.....Mariah looked and sounded amazing on blu! Definitely gonna pick up Elton John as well after seeing it from Netflix and enjoying it a lot.

The Police - Certifiable and Incubus Live at Red Rocks. Prolly 2 of the best looking/sounding blus I own.

My dad has Rush: Snakes and Arrows on bluray. The concert was really impressive. I highly recommend it.

[Geezer00003]

NIN for sure, It's top notch if you're a fan.
David Gilmour, great concert with less that ideal PQ!
Elton John has a great PQ/SQ BD. Not exactly my cup of tea but my wife likes it. Does a cover of Pinball Wizard which I like.
Rush Snakes and Ladders and no flippen bass but good PQ.

Would like to see some Peter Gabriel make it to BD.
Older Genisis would be Awesome(Mama's Tour).

I got to see that one. It's a solid presentation audio/video- wise even if it's not their best work. Essentially a live version of the album. However the audio presentation is very clean and well mixed.

Personally I have 2: Elton John 60th and Chicago/Earth Wind and Fire.

Elton's has a mostly solid video presentation (I did notice some soft moments which is probably due to poor focusing and during the confetti segment, I saw some pixel breakup). The audio is really well recorded. You can clearly hear the inner detail, however i'm not a great fan of the mix. I found out times that the choir and particularily the cellist were mixed so far back that their sound is masked.

The Chicago/Earth Wind and Fire has a solid video presentation, it's not as good as Elton's but still pretty excellent. The audio is well recorded. Again this is one of those mixed where it some instruments are masked. Had a difficult time hearing the drummer on this one.

[The Spanierd]

I have:

Shakira
Mariah Carey
Celine Dion
Ricky Martin
Justin Timberlake


Best one is Ricky Hands down, It looks insane for a concert and sounds great, then Shakira, and Justin. Although the sound on Justin is not up to par IMO.

If you like him... Get Ricky Martin Black and White Tour.

I only own and have only seen 1 concert Blu-ray.

I own :

Korn: Live on the Other Side



As i'm a big fan of the group Korn i LOVED this concert Blu-ray.

From the start to the end of this concert Blu-ray i was amazed at their performance and at how great the PQ & AQ was.

I found myself saying "WOW" alot of times while watching this.

[italiano17771]

dave matthews and tim reynolds...amazing PQ & AQ! highly recommend,

[CHERRYGARCIA]

Dispatch @ MSG is really good too. Didn't know too much about their music before I watched, but became a fan afterwards

[mtmw1863]

I really enjoyed David Gilmour. Some of those Pink Floyd songs are just amazing to listen to again and again.

I own it and it looks and sounds great

If you can get past Feddie strutting around in his little white shorts near the end. It's very distracting for some reason. Even Brian May & Roger Taylor were at a loss for words during the commentary
